Napoli boss Ancelotti delighted with Llorente impact for Lecce win

Napoli boss Carlo Ancelotti is delighted with the impact of Fernando Llorente after victory over Lecce.

Llorente struck twice in the 4-1 at the Stadio Via del Mare.

Ancelotti said, “He certainly made a good impression. I liked the way he played alongside (Arek) Milik and their positioning. The first goal also came from a Milik shot, so we've got a lot of variety to choose from in attack.

“Today, Milik took the centre-right slot, (Lorenzo) Insigne centre-left and Llorente centre-forward. Milik can shoot from distance there and receive in more space. He played alongside Robert Lewandowski many times for Poland, so he's used to it."
